If you don’t follow live funk/soul or listen to JJJ you might have missed the Space Invadas stampede, so its about time you caught up to speed and find out what you missed out on! Support from Pursuit Grooves, bit like Lauryn Hill and Wyclef before they both lost their marbles.

For fans of the Dame Reggaeton nights, new comer Toca is here to fill in the lull between Dame gigs. The music policy is a little more relaxed with a sprinkling of commerical RnB and hiphop and house, but all still keeping with the tropical rhythms the Dame events are renowned for. Set in the pleasantly intimate space of The Aviary, Toca is aiming at becoming a monthly event.

For those of you who barely own a handful of cds and have either “bought” online or “borrowed” your friends “back up” hard drive for all your music then you probably wont get it, but you may also not get leaving the house or human interaction :p

Record store day is all about getting down to your independent (no, not JB or Wow) music store to check out limited releases, live instore music and signings, generally mingle with like minded music geeks and most importantly, showing the store some love. This isn’t a one off thing either, it has been happening all over the world since 2007, and this year it lands tomorrow, Saturday 16 April.

This issue also features the history of recorded music and insights from store employees to international crate digging, all passionately written from those that have been there and been a part of it.

Our local representative on this day is none other than Rockinghorse Records, which also happens to be this week’s Social Club feature in issue #1056. If you look hard enough you may even catch a glimpse of Keiron C actually doing some work 😉
So peel yourself away from iTunes and Beatport for the day and get on down to share in the fun.

The Aviary shoot gets crazy this week with mad cat Cutloose dropping in for some slicing, dicing and breakdancing! Check him out in this week’s issue #1053 as he dishes knowledge on classic hiphop and bad dancers knocking themselves unconscious!

A new week and a NEW new club, for the next batch of shots we hit up scene new comer The Aviary. To kick things off Panda talks about domino-ing congo lines in this week’s issue #1052. Get your LOLlerskates on with business cat on the cover!
